Hey guys,

Went down hilling today on one of Micks favorite trails. It was my first time back on the dh bike since I nocked my head 4 months ago. I was a little nervous at first, not because of what happened, but because I just don’t ride much down hill.

The first run was pretty sketch, but my 3rd run was really good. Even though I hit a tree, racked myself, and yes that still hurts really bad when your a girl. I pulled a Napolean Dynamite and I slid out on a loose corner and managed to run to my knees and slide. It was a great time. Ha ha ha!!!!

It was Micks first day on his new Cannon bike. He really likes it! Our friend Cole Bangert was also riding with us, and he was also on a new bike. So it was a big day for all of us.

We stopped at one of Micks hidden spots so Cole could hit this nice step down. He cleaned it first try. Pretty cool!

As soon as we got home, I headed streight to the gym, and now I’m home and ready for bed. We went boxing again, and this time we are not in so much pain. So it’s all good!

Well, I hope everybody reading this is blessed, and having a good holiday vacation, and if not, I hope your having fun on your bikes! Keep it real for yourself, and have fun!!!

RIDE’N ON AND ON!!!

Hey Guys!

How is it goin? Hope your holidays are going well, and your having fun.

It’s deffiently been weird having a really really hot Christmas. I have to say, it doesn’t feel much like a holiday for me at the moment. It’s helping me not miss home for Christmas though. I’d say that is a good thing.

I’ve been getting to check out all the riding spots here, and I would say it’s a place to visit sometime. Just not during the hot months! The tracks are really cool, and pretty burly. Deffinently good riding!

They have quite a few skateparks here, and not tons of people around them either. I’d say due to the extreme heat, but when you get out and do active stuff, it gets a little easier every day.

I have been hitting the gym a lot, and Mick has been going with one of his mates everyday too. So being sore is part of our everyday experience. It’s usually not too bad, and I actually enjoy being a little sore from lifting now and then. Well, not today. I have felt soo sore today, that it makes me feel sick. Mick and I went to boxing practice the other day, and I knew it would be hard, but dang, this was crazy. I have been looking for ways to really work into shape, and I know this is deffiently a good way to train. We both woke up this smorning not being able to move our shoulders at all. I can’t raise my arm over my head. I had to have Kat, Micks brothers girlfriend brush my hair this smorning. Maybe one other time have I ever felt like this. It hurts a lot, but It is really funny for everybody else to watch us get around.

Mick is getting his new Cannondale frames soon, and I am going to build up a new frame, so that will be good times. Since it’s a little too hot to go bake in the sun at a skatepark, we are going to do some dh and freeriding. So I will let you all know how it goes.

I really hope all is well for everyone, and Enjoy the Hollidays. Someday you may not be home to enjoy them like you do now. So take it in! Have an Awesome Day!!!

RIDE’N ON AND ON!!!

HANNAH
